Safety Instructions 

ALWAYS WEAR PROPER EYE AND FACE PROTECTION.  

Safety glasses

 or face shields should be worn whenever you 

operate any power tool to prevent serious eye or face injuries.  Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry and be sure to tie back long 
hair. 
 
Never operate any accessory at speeds above its maximum speed rating.  Only accessories rated for 7,500 RPM or more should 
be used with the 

Bench Polisher

.  Always determine the manufacturer's speed rating before using accessories.  Safety 

requirements for the use, care, and protection of abrasive wheels are contained in ANSI Standards B7.1-1978 which are available 
from ANSI, 1430 Broadway, New York, New York 10018. 
 
Never use or continue to use any accessory which appears to be damaged, loose, vibrating, or out of balance. Inspect each 
accessory for cracks or flaws before using it. 
 
Always insert the shank or arbor of an accessory or mandrel into the collet (or collet holder chuck or chuck arbor) as far as 
possible in order to provide proper support.  Tighten the collet or chuck securely. 
Never use excessive side pressures which may tend to bend or break the shank or arbor or an accessory.  Let the speed of the 
accessory do the work. 
 
Do not stall the motor by jamming or using excessive pressure on the polishing wheel, buff, wheel, or accessory.  This can result 
in damage to the motor. 

 

Assembly Instructions 

Each 

Bench Polisher

 with 1/4" diameter shaft comes with the following: standard attachments Tapered Spindle (left hand), 

Tapered Spindle (right hand), two medium grit abrasive wheels, and two replacement motor brushes.  These are precision made 
spindles suitable for speeds up to 7,5000 RPM.  Similar spindles and mandrels supplied for slower speed polishing motors often 
do not run as true which can cause vibration and be a potential hazard.  Their use is not recommended with this 

bench polisher

 
Mounting Base: The base should be bolted or screwed down to a solid work bench or table to prevent movement while pressure is 
applied to a buff or wheel on the lathe.  There are four mounting holes in the base for this purpose. 
 
Attach the spindles or mandrels by sliding them onto the motor shaft until there is a 1/8" space between the motor housing and 
inside edge of the spindle or mandrel.  Be sure that the two set screws line up with the flat on the motor shaft.  Tighten both 
screws securely. 
 
Plug in the motor and run polisher at slow speed without a buff (or wheel) to see that the spindles (or mandrel) on the polisher are 
running true. 
 
Never use a buff, brush, abrasive wheel, or any other accessory that is not rated for at least 7,5000 RPM and never use one that 
appears to wobble or vibrate.  It could damage the polisher and cause injury to you.  Buffs over 4" in diameter should not be used 
on the 

Bench Polisher

.  Never use a grinding wheel over 2" diameter.
